signature) by an official who has 

authority to apply for Federal

diskette or a CD may be enclosed with 

the hard copy application. 

Applicants also have the option of 

submitting SCBGP applications 

electronically through the central 

Federal grants web site, http:// 

www.grants.gov instead of mailing hard 

copy documents. Applicants 

considering the electronic application 

option are strongly urged to familiarize 

themselves with the Federal grants web 

site and begin the application process 

well before the application deadline. 

SCBGP is listed in the ‘‘Catalog of
